I'll be off to Subi Oval on Saturday night to hopefully watch Freo pull off a famous victory against reigning Premiers, Port Adelaide.

Go The Dockers..!!
Most ridiculous game known to man!

I love rugby league full stop, no other sport comes anywhere near.
Oh for God sake, change the bloody record mate!

We all know you like Rugby League. You don't have to constantly drone on about it!
Personally, I'm not a great fan of RL, but I don't post on a RL thread boring all the other readers to sleep about the sports that I do like!

This is an AFL thread, & you have the second highest post count on it.

Why?

If you're not the least bit interested in Australian Rules Football, then why contribute to a discussion on a subject you don't care about?

If you have any relevant comment on this weekends AFL results, or any other matter pertaining to Aussie Rules, then post away. Knock yourself out.

If, on the other hand, you just want to bore us all to death by telling us for the 500th time how fantastic Rugby League is, don't bother.

Seems obvious to me their is a 'protection' on this AFL thred yet my NRL thread was moved to another forum. The mods must also be pro AFL hence my request gone unoticed.
If I choose to talk about NRL as much as some choose to talk about AFL, whats the problem? Dont like an alternative view do we? Must we all become robotic AFL supporters just because I live in WA?

You just completely miss the point every time don't you? The AFL fans wouldn't jump on a rugby thread slating the game because it's not their preference. You jumped onto this one doing that. As someone else said, if you hate AFL so much, then why not just ignore the bloody thread instead of stirring it up?

As for protection ... I've explained to you already why your rugby thread was moved

Well, I was gonna reply to PL's comment on my earlier post, but wmoore has just done it for me with the above.
Hit the nail on the head WM methinks...

Anyway.... Back to the real issue!

Results from AFL, 2005, Round 1, are as follows:

Brisbane Lions 18. 8 116 def. St Kilda 13.15 93
Kangaroos 16. 9 105 def. Carlton 12.13 85
Fremantle 13.10 88 def. Port Adelaide 7.11 53
Melbourne 15.13 103 def. Essendon 8. 9 57
Sydney Swans 18.10 118 def. Hawthorn 8. 7 55
Geelong 25.10 160 def. Richmond 15. 8 98
West Coast Eagles 9.10 64 def. Adelaide 7.11 53
Western Bulldogs 16.16 112 def. Collingwood 11.14 80

Feeling pretty proud of myself at the moment.

In my Footy tipping competition, I tipped 6 out of 8 with
no real recent form to go on...

Woohooo!

Not the AFL apparently. I still haven't seen it (it's on Sky Sports here on Friday night and Saturday afternoon for anyone interested) but I'm surprised by this.
